Burnout

The past few days has been a really tough one. We have been preparing the spares to be sent back to Singapore for days. But thankfully, last night was the final night of packing and sealing. We ended work close to midnight after arranging the crates in the containers.

A lot of mishaps has happened the past few days. From getting metal cuts to splinters, metal splinters and metal splinters in the cut. But what was the scariest was the incident where the crate cover, with nails at the edges came falling in my direction, due to the negligence of my Sgt. He didn't even say sorry. But I guess all of us are too tired from working till late everyday.

Theres been a few days where I was supposed to RIC but changed. So bringing to next month 3 RIC. OK that's the update for now.. Will do so again tonight.

Fit for the day

Beside the weekly Zumba at Woodlands Waterfront, I was more or less home-bounded. In the afternoon, I got bored and while trying to find some games to play on my phone, I came across Just Dance Now. It's a dance along game but it requires a laptop/tablet and your smartphone. The app chooses 4 free songs for you to dance to daily. Surprisingly, after the 4 songs, I was sweating a lot! At night, I did the abs conditioning you taught me. I wonder why I haven't felt the ache yet... I've this feeling that I will wake up tomorrow morning feeling it.

Other than that, nothing much went on today. Watched some lecture videos and some american TV show, Secret Circle.

:D

Weekly visit to Herbalife DC

Today has been a sinful day. I had Roti Prata for breakfast (the fish curry is so good!) and had Yong Tao Fu (fried items) for dinner. I tried to feel less guilty about it by running. Managed to run 2.4km at 14.15 seconds. Still a long way to my goal for IPPT, but at least it's a start.

Met with Alicia for her weekly review and wanted for an hour to meet Joseph. He's finally on the 7 days program. Looking forward to see his result.

Managed to push through my procrastination today and completed my one of the module's homework at the end of the day. I brought my notes to DC to study while waiting for Joseph. At least no time was wasted while I waited. I've also completed the design of the project Andy and I are on.

We are still working on its name though...

On top of that, we confirmed the Hong Kong trip. We're taking SIA to HK and SIA had a promotion. We will be flying over on 5th Nov and reach HK at night and stay at the airport for that day. Hotel wise, we booked one near Tsim Sha Tsui MRT, New Euro Asia Guest House. It's a super budgeted guest house.

Hope you're feeling better from the fever. I'll be waking up early tomorrow for Zumba with my mum.

Goodnight boo!

Today was very dry. A lot of paper work to do. And I wasn't feeling comfortable from fever and all.

We ended work early and closed the office to prepare for nights out. Went out with a spoilt bus that doesn't have a working air conditioning. Once at ktown, our first stop was lotus.

Bought myself a fridge, milk and other healthy snacks. Then went back to bus station to leave our things in the bus before going to this restaurant called meat and cheese. The area is called resort. I ordered chicken steak, and my friend ordered pizza.

After which I accompanied him to find his friends at this bar called monkey bar. Super not comfortable.

Then went back and slept on the bus back to camp. When reached bunk, my buddy got so excited and we immediately unwrapped the fridge and started putting things in it. That's my day.

Today lesson was interesting. We got to debate about the correlation of art and technology, as well as when is it acceptable to do plastic surgery.

After lesson, we went to the gym. I'm pretty much a noob there, but I did most of the upper body machines. The people there were all so fit. Felt so out of the place.

I had pastamania after that cwp with my dad. Made used of the student promotion, so one plate of pasta + a drink = $5.90. My dad paid for it, of course. Haha.

Reaching home, I did my work for most part of the afternoon and evening. After that, I joined my mum to watch TV drama.

Basically that's that for my day. Rest well okay boo, hope you'll not fall sick. 😘

Today is yet another day of RIC for me. But instead of sleeping the whole day away, I decided to ask my bunk buddy for his external hardisk. Got quite a selection of movies. Rewatched pitch perfect 2 before going for lunch.

After lunch, came back to continue watching pitch perfect and do my laundry. After which I watched fast 7 and folded my clothes. Went for early dinner then watched spy.

Got rejected by 2 of my 'friends' about herbalife but I don't want to talk to you about it.

I think I'm falling sick :( shall have an way night. Goodnight boo.

I woke up earlier than usual to go to school today so that I've enough time to complete my reading material before my 12pm lesson. On top of that, there was a meeting at 9.30am for another module. End up, half the group was late...

What I don't like about the 12pm lesson was that we're randomly grouped weekly and we're supposed to answer questions related to the learning materials. I was fortunate that I was grouped with Amanda for the 12pm lesson as she knew most of the answers.

The 2pm lesson was so boring that I near fell asleep... Nothing much I can talk about that module. Haha.

After that, Chuan Wei and I signed up for the SIA app challenge. But we're still not sure how committed we can be to it.

Reaching home, showered and took a nap. Had dinner and I completed some prototype images for the project Andy and I were working on.

Slept the whole morning away only waking up for lunch. After lunch went back to bunk to do laundry and clean up the bunk a bit. It gets dusty very fast. At 4.30 I went to prepare for a run. This time we ran 2.5km and there were 4 of us.

After dinner I went back bunk to take money and go back canteen to buy nuggets and my shirt. But both don't have and I ended up getting a big size Cha Yen.

Went back to bunk watched RDR, halfway got recovery so had to go back office. So uncomfortable and I saw things in the warehouse and outside. Lucky I wasn't alone. Went back to bunk continue my RDR and now typing this out before sleeping.

Hope your past 2 days was eventful. Miss you so so much boo

Goodnight

The day started off with the morning HLS run. 2km of running in the new environment is starting to be like a normal run back in Singapore. I guess it's thanks to the 8 plus km of run I did with my 1SG that night. After the run, by right should be breakfast. But because no government, basically means no ic I just stayed in bunk to rest with my buddy, who was already asleep cause be doesn't need to go HLS as be was on RIC.

I then went to office at 845 as instructed by the duty stormen but he wasn't even there to open up the office. Had to wait for another 15mins. It's OK that I had to wait, what made me even more angry at him was that he boss me around asking me to do the tedious work while he just use his phone, talk to people smoke and laugh as if he got an asthma attack. So angry. Before that he say he need help to find one of the account cards. The stupid thing is that it's directly in front of his face. He made me search the whole office.

After work went dinner with my SSG and that idiot Indian guy. Halfway through, the POL guys joined us. And my SSG and that idiot decided to abandoned me there. So I spent the evening with the POL peeps, whom made me feel more welcomed. After dinner, went back to bunk. Watched an episode or 2 of RDR and got hungry again.

Just nice at that time my buddy returned to the bunk and we decided to go canteen. I had Nasi Goreng Pattaya. We ate in the ops room cause the cos is one regular that we're close with. After which back to bunk and sleep.

The night view was just so marvelous. The sky was covered with stars. And there were fireflies flying around. Was so wishing that you could be there to enjoy the view with,cuddled up and alll.

Woke up as per normal to shower. But I felt too tired lately hence I slept in a little. Woke up to go for roll call and then proceed for breakfast together with the rest of the techstore guys. After breakfast, we filled the cambro with ice as my SSG and 1SG was going to kaoming camp for port operations duty with other departments.

We then went to office to prepare a little bit more before I went up to shower and change to my number 4. After lunch, there were only 3 of us left, my bunk buddy and another Indian guy. As there wasn't anything for us to do, we just sat there.

At 1500, my bunk buddy went to the hq to go for his EOT briefing. During his absence, the Indian guy said we should do the closing for the 1304 documents. End up he just sat there talking to another Indian guy from MTLine department. So angry. I just did one document then stopped.

We closed our office at 1715 since not much people were around. Then went for dinner.  After dinner I made the decision to stop gymming with that regular. I feel that I don't want to bulk up and build muscles. But loose weight and tone up instead. As I was watching Rupaul's Drag Race, RDR, my techstore group chat became active due to the Bangkok blast.

That's when I thought I should drop you a text to tell you that I would call you. To update you that I'm safe. Then continued to watch my series while my phone charged.

Anyway, yesterday's incident, both the bombing and our conversation, made me appreciate you even more. I know it's been tough on you. My emotions, my absence and your own stress from school and the business. I really really appreciate you for being there for me and for being strong. I might not show it. I might overuse the I love yous and what nots. But I really don't want to loose you. I take back what I said about letting go if I have to, cause I won't let that happen.

I woke up earlier today to attempt to finish my readings for my class in the morning. I ended up procrastinating and ended up, not being able to finish them. I decided that I can do the remaining readings on the way to school, but I fell asleep on the train over. That left with my bus ride to school to finish whatever leftover. That's why I didn't reply to you messages. Sorry.

Lesson was interesting (kinda) and there was a semi-heated discussion between two students. I gave my usual "stop wasting my time" face. I need to work on better hiding my feelings...

I had shake for lunch, and ate a sandwich for my afternoon snack. After my lesson, I was waiting for Bryan to reply my message on whether he would be coming down to DC so I can pass him the scale. He finally replied at 3pm+ saying that he would not be going down. Since Andy ended his lesson at about that time, I met him and we went to Bishan to have dinner. We went our separate ways after that, I went home and he went to his real estate course.

Now that I am home... I feel like sleeping very badly...

Oh ya, I did the most absentminded thing ever. I brought out the spare battery and it was even charged. Was running low on juice at about 4pm.
